Example task
A team asks for an information security policy for a new application. They provide no jurisdiction, system scope, data classification, framework edition, existing controls, owner, approver, review date, or evidence. Give a direct readiness assessment and the next evidence needed.
Without the bundle
Draft a comprehensive information security policy covering access control, encryption, incident response, backups, vendor management, annual review, and approval by the CISO. Align it to ISO 27001 and NIST. The policy should apply to all systems and employees and require strong passwords and MFA.
Using the bundle
Direct answer The request is not ready for an authoritative policy or an approval claim. A useful structure can be drafted, but scope, obligations, source edition, owners, approver, review date, and control evidence are missing. Evidence status - Verified: None. - Provided: The team wants an information security policy for a new application. - Assumed: None. - Needs verification: jurisdiction and contracts; application and data boundaries; selected framework edition; existing controls and evidence; policy owner; approval and exception authority; effective/review dates; implementation and distribution mechanism.
Why this is better: The assisted output is stronger because it gives a direct readiness answer, preserves the only supplied fact, does not invent an approver or control requirements, identifies missing evidence, and describes a source-backed next step. This example is illustrative and is not a measured benchmark result.

Practical example
Use it with an agent
Load the bundle as context, provide the evidence named above, then adapt this example to your situation.
Provide the document purpose, audience, source evidence, required sections, constraints, approvers, and intended decision or action. Ask the agent to draft or review Security Policy & Standards and return security policy with material claims tied to evidence and assumptions, open questions, reviewers, and approval gates marked. Begin with NIST — Publications / Nist Cybersecurity Framework Csf 20, then confirm that the reference is current and applicable. Inspect Security Policy and Standards source-backed Guide before drafting.

Limitations and safe use
Do not use this for
- Publishing, approving, or acting on a draft before its material claims, source evidence, owners, and approval gates have been reviewed.
Known limitations
- Not legal, regulatory, audit, certification, or professional security advice.
- Exact editions, control IDs, owners, authorities, dates, thresholds, and obligations require current source inspection and local evidence.
- A policy or mapping does not prove implementation or effectiveness.
Safety notes
- Minimize sensitive security, personal, customer, credential, architecture, vulnerability, and incident data.
- Require explicit confirmation before approving, enforcing, publishing, disclosing, accepting risk, or changing live systems.
- Route final reliance to accountable security, legal, compliance, audit, and business reviewers.
